A lovely morning riding with Alessia & ‘Equestrians in Italy’ - Me and my Fiancé spent the morning on the ranch and riding with Alessia for my birthday. We had an absolutely amazing day from start to finish! We learnt how to take care of the horses including grooming them down and feeding them. The experience was perfectly tailored for riders of any experience. As it was my fiancés first time riding, Alessia helped him mount the horse and get used to riding to ensure he felt safe and comfortable throughout the treck. We went on a scenic route of the Roman countryside where we learnt about the local history of the area up to the present day which was truly fascinating. It made the activity also a learning experience for us. As I had previous riding experience I was able to trot with my horse which was really fun & accommodating. Alessia was also so kind to take photos of us throughout the ride and at the end which we really appreciated. This whole experience was the perfect way to spend my birthday and I really recommend to anyone considering.. definitely book this excursion as it is a truly unique and enjoyable experience! ❤️ - Xanthe

Very funny. - After giving the bran to the horse as food. We brushed the horses and finally walked to the horse for an hour. Even though we were beginners we also went trotting. Very nice and fun experience. To be redone

An amazing experience!! - Such an amazing experience! Alessia helped us organize a ride there and back for a great price- we even stopped for some coffee and pastries. The ranch was a great experience- Alessia was very knowledgable about horses and educated us on everything we needed to know. We started off with walking with the horses, then brushing them before going on a trail ride. Overall was about 3 hours. Would 100% recommend this little getaway- my husband and I did this together for our honeymoon and we couldn’t be happier! Thank you!

Relaxing horseback ride in a well-kept and welcoming riding stable - Really enjoyable experience! I took a horseback ride with a friend booking through Smartbox and we were both very satisfied. The riding school is a nice and well-kept place, immersed in a relaxing atmosphere. The people are kind, helpful and make you feel immediately at ease. The horses are well kept, cared for and pampered, you see that there is great attention to their well-being. Recommended for those looking for a quiet and authentic experience in contact with nature.

Not just a riding school - A truly unique experience, different from that offered by classic riding stables! This is not just about getting on the saddle and going around: you get involved at 360°, from the moment you take the horse from the fence, to when you feed it and saddle it. An authentic approach that allows you to really connect with the animal. All the staff are extremely friendly, helpful and ready to make you feel comfortable, even if you are at the first experience. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxed: perfect for an experience alone (they are all very sociable!) or as a couple or with a group of friends. In addition, it is pleasant to spend entire days immersed in nature, between laughter, sharing and aperitifs in front of a bonfire in summer. A place to really unwind and enjoy simple moments but full of emotions. Highly recommended!

AMAZING! 🐴🌳 - It was the best walk I've ever done on Rome. I really appreciated the opportunity to do an hour from the ground in contact with the horse preparing it for the walk, so I could get in touch and get to know it. Alessia was very helpful and helpful, very good at telling us some foresight or gem to enjoy the experience to the fullest. The walk was very relaxing, between the greenery and the autumn colors of the trees. Super recommended!! I will definitely be back!

Wonderful!! - A wonderful experience! I was lucky enough to take a walk in this riding school and I was impressed by the love and respect with which all horses are treated. Here it is not only a place to mount, but a real refuge for animals rescued from difficult situations or even from slaughter. Each horse has its own story and is cared for with dedication to give it a second chance and a peaceful life. During the walk you really feel the connection between people and animals calm, respect and a lot of gratitude.

Excursion in December - We had a great experience with Alessia, we first approached with horses (feeding them, brushing them and getting to know them better) and then took a beautiful ride in the middle of nature. Highly recommended!
